Pachinko follows one Korean family through the generations, beginning in early 1900s Korea with Sunja, the prized daughter of a poor yet proud family, whose unplanned pregnancy threatens to shame them all. Deserted by her lover, Sunja is saved when a young tubercular minister offers to marry and bring her to Japan.
So begins a sweeping saga of an exceptional family in exile from its homeland and caught in the indifferent arc of history. Through desperate struggles and hard-won triumphs, its members are bound together by deep roots as they face enduring questions of faith, family, and identity.

—— 引自第355页 - Akiko: “Noah chan, why are you so angry with me? You know that I think you of the best." Noah stared at her. She would always believe that he was someone else, that he wasn't himself, but some fanciful idea of a foreign person. She would always feel like she was someone special because she had condescended to be with someone everyone else hated. His presence would prove to the world that she was a good person, an educated person, a liberal person. Noah didn't care about being Korean when he was with her. In fact, he didn't care about being Korean or Japanese with anyone. He wanted to be, to be just himself, whatever that meant. He wanted to forget himself sometimes. But that wasn't possible. It would never be possible with her. There was nothing else he could think of. And he wanted t... (查看原文)

赶在开学前读完。希望读者都能抛开所谓韩剧（美剧）视角（诸如男一女一以及组cp等），书里描写了许多令人尊敬的女性角色（Sunja Haha），她们在感叹自身命运不公的同时，从未放弃斗争。可能是先前对在日的历史有所了解期待过高，尤其看到60年代的描述中略去日本社会对在日的讨论（比如在日先锋大岛渚和金喜老事件引发的一系列讨论等）。
NYPL. 3.22-4.8, 5.8-5.18. A touch of the intricacy of history, nationality, love and ignorance, something adding to my daily despair about the world.

离家
昨天晚上读《柏青哥》，一部长篇小说。原本只想读个开头，没想到四个半小时沉浸在故事中。 读到最后一页，合上书，想起了我自己经历的一个故事。 和马赛开车去西峡湾的路上，聊到了共同的朋友：希拉。 希拉来自南非，和马赛是同事，在冰岛的地图公司上班。三十年前，那时希拉还... (展开)

关于柏青哥你知道的与不知道的
感谢豆瓣与北京九志天达文化传媒有限公司惠书，让我能够第一时间读到这本小说。 作为一本新书而非经典重版，我不太想在这里进行文本解构或是人物剖析，因为这或多或少要涉及“泄底”，必然会很大程度上影响尚未读过本书的读者的阅读体验。等过上一段时间这本小说变成一个耳熟能... (展开)

流落他国的“异乡人”
对于顺子来说，日本当然不是故乡，她的故乡是在今天韩国济州的影岛，但她在十六、七岁的时候来到日本之后，直到七十岁的时候，她都没有离开过日本——她以后还有没有机会离开日本，回到济州的影岛去看一看，小说中没有说，似乎也不必说。总而言之，在日本，她永远都被视为外国... (展开)

反认他乡是故乡，甚荒唐
读《柏青哥》是一场特别心碎的阅读体验，我读得很慢很慢，并在中途数次泪崩，为苦命的女人们不断地哽咽流泪，一句“女人天生就是受苦的命”贯穿全书，令我反复咀嚼其中流露出的苦涩与无奈的意味，所幸，结尾处稍显光明：“她的母亲过去常说女人天生就是受苦的命，但她最不希望... (展开)
